Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Having noticed the level of detail to which a lot of CRJ systems have been developed already, is it correct to assume that some more work will be done on systems like hydraulics, bleeds and pressurization? It's cool to have all the bells and whistles associated with ice detection, protection and de-icing, for example, but wouldn't it be even cooler if we could also "really" switch hydraulics, bleeds, and packs off, instead of having "just" the clickspots, messages, and synoptic indications? In a SP1, maybe? (No, Frank, I'm not talking about extensive failure modelling and abnormal procedures, just some more consequences of pilots' actions and a few more details during power-up and power-down of the CRJ. I mean, in the Airbus, at least fuel consumption stops, when you switch off the pumps ... ;-) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
